Your dark spots need more than another brightening serum. This dermatologist-backed formula combines 10% pure ascorbic acid with neurosensine to fade pigmentation and boost radiance without irritating your sensitive skin. La Roche-Posay engineered this lightweight cream specifically for normal to combination types who find traditional vitamin C formulas too heavy or reactive.
Key Benefits
- Fades dark spots: 10% pure vitamin C targets post-acne marks and sun damage at the cellular level.
- Restores radiance: Ascorbic acid neutralizes free radicals from pollution and UV exposure for a brighter, more even tone.
- Smooths fine lines: Vitamin C supports collagen synthesis to visibly reduce the appearance of wrinkles over time.
- Calms reactive skin: Neurosensine soothes sensitivity so your skin tolerates potent actives without redness.
- Lightweight absorption: Non-greasy cream texture absorbs quickly under makeup or SPF without pilling.
Key Ingredients
10% Pure Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid): Gold-standard antioxidant that fades pigmentation and boosts radiance by neutralizing free radicals and supporting collagen production. Neurosensine: Soothing peptide that reduces skin sensitivity and helps reactive types tolerate vitamin C without irritation. Salicylic Acid: Gently exfoliates to improve penetration of actives and refine texture so vitamin C works more effectively. La Roche-Posay Thermal Spring Water: Selenium-rich spring water with antioxidant and calming properties for sensitive skin.
How to Use
Apply every morning to clean, dry skin on face and neck. Dispense a pea-size amount and smooth evenly, avoiding the eye area. Let absorb for 30 seconds before applying SPF 30 or higher. Start with every other day for the first week if you have reactive skin, then increase to daily use. Always follow with sunscreen since vitamin C increases sun sensitivity.
